Flyers

As a completely grassroots effort, it is up to YOU to get the word out to your friends and neighbors.  Everyone deserves the information you now have that will allow them to make necessary and informed decisions.  Click here for tips on passing out flyers.

• When you walk your neighborhood, try to not only pass out the two flyers, below, but try to talk with EVERYONE!  Refer them to the website if you don't know all the facts and figures.  Lord knows, there's plenty of information on this internet.

• Mobilize groups to distribute flyers at public events.  A good way to start a conversation is, "Do you know what a Smart Meter is?"  You will be surprised how many have never heard of it.  From my experience 95% of people appreciate the time you took to inform them as they knew nothing about it.
  

• Send out these flyers to everyone in your email address book and refer them to this site.

• Invite others and attend our next meeting place (City Councils, home meetings, etc) which are posted in the News & Events section.

• Contact your State Congressperson, County Supervisors, City Councilpersons, and demand a moretorium on Smart Meter installations.

Smart Meters are a direct assault on your freedom and liberties.

Fairfax, CA - The Entire Town Has Taken A Stand



This public forum on the compulsory installation by northern California utility, Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) of environmentally toxic, privacy-violating, unsafe and hackable wireless so-called 'smart' meters was held in Fairfax, California September 9, 2011.

The tiny city of Fairfax, CA is on the frontline of local democratic opposition to the misconceived and dangerous corporate 'smart' grid plan which former CIA Director James Woolsey terms 'really stupid.'

She recently helped found the West Marin non-profit, Alliance for Human and Environmental Health (AllianceHEH.org), which advocates and educates about Smart Meters and harmful effects of Radio Frequency Microwave Radiation in neighborhoods and schools. She speaks about how the wireless smart meter issue forced her into becoming active in civil disobedience for the first time. She discusses how this led to her founding a non-profit organization dedicated to education on how to stand up for our democracy through community involvement and activism vs corporate tyranny.

Larry Bragman, Esq. and Mayor of Fairfax, CA and twice member of Fairfax Town Council. He has an active law practice in San Rafael as a trial lawyer specializing in consumer rights and criminal defense matters. He lives in Fairfax with his wife Holly and their two stepsons. His talk is a summary of Fairfax's opposition to Smart Meters from its birth to its current status. The ordinance Fairfax passed is the model that many other cities and counties used. 46 local governments, cities and counties plus one tribal council, have opposed 'smart' meter installation, representing well over 2.6 million people in PG&E's 10 million-ratepayer area.
